if you know someone is a traderthen report the issue ... we do not care who reports stuff ..
if you consider yourself a grass for doing that sort of thing then don't complain if you dont like the way people slip into obscurity and have fun selling stuff then the paying traders stop .. the site looses revenue and thats not gonna be good is it ...

all reports are dealt in confidence by me 110% i will not offer any clues to who reported it or in somecases the actual thread "if" it makes it obvious who reported it..

we don't know everything about who trades who runs thier own business etc but with somedetective work from others who know we can usually find evidence elsewhere other than passionford to offer the person as proof we know what theyaredoing ..
the users on here are a great resource and should not feel like they are grassing someone up or anything like that ...
the report system does work .. we do sometimes confer as to the outcome as not all are open and shut cases ..
i do sometimes let the reporter know it has been actioned .. but if its a busy time then i don't .. sorry but ....

if something is reported then sometimes its quite obvious that posts or spammers have been dealt with ..
